### Motivation
When creating a connection, we wrongfully assumed that
`failedToCreateNewConnection` will always be called before
`http*ConnectionClosed` in the `HTTPConnectionPoolStateMachine`. However
this is far from correct. In NIO Futures are fulfilled before
`ChannelHandler` callbacks. Ordering in futures should not be assumed in
such a complex project.
### Change
We change the `http*ConnectionClosed` methods to be noops, if the
connection is in the starting state. We instead wait for the
`failedToCreateNewConnection` to create backoff timers and friends.

Motivation
This patch adds support for HTTP/1 connection pre-warming. This allows
the user to request that the HTTP/1 connection pool create and maintain
extra connections, above-and-beyond those strictly needed to run the
pool. This pool can be used to absorb small spikes in request traffic
without increasing latency to account for connection creation.
Modifications
- Added new configuration properties for pre-warmed connections.
- Amended the HTTP/1 state machine to create new connections where
necessary.
- Added state machine tests.
Results
Pre-warmed connections are available.
Migrate CI to use GitHub Actions.
### Motivation:
To migrate to GitHub actions and centralised infrastructure.
### Modifications:
Changes of note:
* Adopt swift-format using rules from SwiftNIO.
* Remove scripts and docker files which are no longer needed.
* Disabled warnings-as-errors on Swift 6.0 CI pipelines for now.
### Result:
Feature parity with old CI.
Since most of the servers now conform to http2, the change here updates
the behaviour of assuming the connection to be http2 and not http1 by
default. It will migrate to http1 if the server only supports http1.
One can set the `httpVersion` in `ClientConfiguration` to `.http1Only`
which will start with http1 instead of http2.
Additional Changes:
- Fixed an off by one error in the maximum additional general purpose
connection check
- Updated tests

Motivation:
Sometimes it can be helpful to limit the number of times a connection
can be used before discarding it. AHC has no such support for this at
the moment.
Modifications:
- Add a `maximumUsesPerConnection` configuration option which defaults
to `nil` (i.e. no limit).
- For HTTP1 we count down uses in the state machine and close the
connection if it hits zero.
- For HTTP2, each use maps to a stream so we count down remaining uses
in the state machine which we combine with max concurrent streams to
limit how many streams are available per connection. We also count
remaining uses in the HTTP2 idle handler: we treat no remaining uses
as receiving a GOAWAY frame and notify the pool which then drains the
streams and replaces the connection.
Result:
Users can control how many times each connection can be used.
If a request times out because no connection could be attained, we should fail the request with the last connection creation error. If no connection creation error is present and there is no active connection, we fail the request with a connectTimeout error.
